Last Chance…

 …to get a pair of the Adidas ZX8000 x Union (GZ7974) via the Adidas app

Since I was the set photographer for the filming of the video, I got my own little clip.

Here are also some BTS pictures of the production days

All the photos after the jump

Adidas x 1. FC Union

Here's another production with Adidas, where I worked infront and behind the camera:
The Adidas ZX 8000 FC Union
A shoe that celebrates the 1. FC Union Berlin soccer club and the tradition this model 

shares with the soccer fan scene.
One of the driving forces for the realization of this shoe is Liquit Walker, who is as much a 

fan of the ZX, as he is of FC Union Berlin. 

For the family & friends edition iron lace jewels where forged in a small old smithy in Berlin 

Köpenick. 

I will post some detailed shoe and making of pictures from our production days next week. 

The Adidas ZX 8000 FC Union is limited to 1966 pairs (a nod towards the founding year of the 

club) and can be exclusively purchased through the Adidas App for 125,55€. One can 

participate at the raffle until the 20th of April, release is the 21st.

CryptoKicks - the future is here

Nike holds patent for blockchain-based sneakers called ‘CryptoKicks’

The US Patent Office has issued sportswear brand Nike‘s patent

for its blockchain-compatible sneakers dubbed “CrpytoKicks.”
The patent outlines a system whereby blockchain can be used to attach

cryptographically secured digital assets to a physical product, in this 

case a sports shoe.

Adidas Home of Culture

Another recent project I have been involved with behind and infront of the camera was this 

campaign my friend Mel thought up with Mr. Bianco about my home turf.

Star of the clip is the beautiful Steph, who's just a total pro infront of the camera.
For the film I took part as a sneaker advisor, talking about one of my favorite Adidas models, 

the Rivalry. 

I also got the chance to shoot some 'Kiez' pictures around my home for the print campaign, 

that promotes Steph and the campaign in Snipes Store in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Always a pleasure to work with the three stripes!

Snipes x adidas Share Her Power

Since I joined this project very spontaneously, I did not have to wait for too long to show you 

what I've recently worked on as a creative director.

A project about young women and their superpowers.

Here's a first peek at the 'Share Her Power' campaign for Snipes x Adidas with this great team:

Rebecca, Bene, mgvideox, Leeroy, Jana, Baetrix, Ana, trvnnng

Even IG Times made it to Sotheby's

Not a bad price for the whole set actually

David Schmidlapp founded the IGTimes in 1984, making it the first magazine devoted to 

aerosol art and culture. Schmidlapp first approached the project as an outsider, but soon 

became a collaborator with the various artists of the movement. 

In 1986, he teamed up with with legendary "writer" and Hip Hop pioneer Phase 2 (starting

with volume 8), with circulation growing from 2000 to 5000. In 1998, two years after

production ended, an edition of 100 complete sets were issued, or which this is number 2.

David Schmidlapp has been a New York City photography-based artist for the past five decades. 

Photography has been the binding thread for all his artistic endeavors, which have included 

projection, installation, photomontage, filmmaking, publishing and performance.

The IGTimes archive, consisting of thousands of pre-digital artifacts, was acquired Cornell 

University's Library to become part of their Hip Hop collection.

Complete sets have also been acquired by institutions such as MoMA, Getty, Stanford and Yale 

University.
